Zadie Smith
“You don't know you're born.

You don't. You don't know you're born”
― Zadie Smith, NW

Virginia Woolf
“The strange thing about life is that though the nature of it must have been apparent to every one for hundreds of years, no one has left any adequate account of it. The streets of London have their map; but our passions are uncharted. What are you going to meet if you turn this corner?”
― Virginia Woolf, Jacob's Room

Zadie Smith
“I got something to tell you," said Keisha Blake, disguising her voice with her voice.”
― Zadie Smith, NW

Zadie Smith
“Not everyone wants this conventional little life you’re rowing your boat toward. I like my river of fire. And when it’s time for me to go I fully intend to roll off my one-person dinghy into the flames and be consumed. I'm not afraid.”
― Zadie Smith, NW
tags: fear, life

Zadie Smith
“Philosophy is listening to warbling posh boys, it is being more bored than you have ever been in your life, more bored than you thought it possible to be.”
― Zadie Smith, NW
